There are two main categories of inflatables: residential inflatables and commercial inflatables. Residential inflatables that are placed in your own backyard for children or a few people to play with, and commercial inflatables that are sold or leased for parties or special events. How are residential and commercial inflatables different?

1. Manufacturing materials are different. Residential inflatables are usually made of heavy duty nylon or polyester oxford cloth, also known as oxford cloth. Commercial inflatable toys are usually made of heavy duty PVC vinyl. PVC material is stronger, easier to clean and waterproof than Oxford cloth. All of our inflatables from East-inflatables, the material is 0.55mm 18oz PVC tarpaulin from Plato.

2. Residential inflatables are about 3 feet to 15 feet long, about 2 – 4 people using at a time, can be used for six months to a year, and the shelf life is usually about 3 months; commercial inflatables are about 10 feet to 80 feet long , Once used by about 4 to 10 people or more, it can be used for 3-5 years, and the shelf life is usually two to three years. So in general, commercial inflatable toys will be more secure to use.

3. Of course, the price of commercial inflatable toys is also higher.
